My lawyer just reached a settlement with GM over the intermittent black screen issue with my 2019 Silverado 1500 WT.  After multiple unsuccessful attempts by the dealer to repair it,  I contacted a California Lemon Law lawyer.   GM repurchased my truck for the full price that I originally paid for it plus penalties to settle the case.    Gonna buy a FORD.

What ended up happening after the lawyer got involved?

GM settled the case by repurchasing my truck for the full price paid plus penalties.

I have a 2019 Chevy TrailBoss and the same thing has been happening with mine too. We’ve called the dealership and they said it’s due to the heat or hot weather (we live in Arizona) but to turn it off for a few minutes and turn back on and it should work. Didn’t fix it. It turns on/off whenever it wants. It’s been happening ever since. It happened again today and it was 75° This morning when I turned on my truck. I read somewhere else that someone was told it was due to the “cold weather” in their area. Sounds like an excuse to me. It’s July of 2022 and still no fix for this. This is disappointing considering what we paid for this truck.

O.K. well I guess I am not alone on this subject. I have not seen any recent posts about this since 2019. It is now 2021 and I just experienced this issue on my 2019 Trail Boss. Not controls, blank screen and the radio could not be turned off or down, or change the channel. I turned the truck off then on again. Nothing... When I arrived at home, I checked fuses all good. I went to back it into the garage and it magically worked. No clue how or why. I did not reset, pull fuses or anything. It just decided to work again, which worries me more as this sounds like such an intermittent problem, like most electrical issues (goblins in the wires). Anyone have a fix or has GM announced a fix yet?

It is July of 2022 and my truck is still doing the same thing. It’s terrible. Haven’t heard of a fix as of yet

Happened to me on my trip last week, about 3 hours on the road and screen went blank and I couldn't do anything to reboot it.  Tried shutting the truck down and quickly restarting but that didn't work either.  Shut it down again and waited a few minutes (was going to disconnect the battery but found I didn't have the right wrench) so I started it again and it came back on. 

 

It only happened the one time, hoping it doesn happen again and that it was just a fluke... but after reading this thread I'm skeptical!

My 2019 2500hd is garage kept and babied. Just rolled 30k kilometers and the radio just went dead and black as well. Just my luck, warranty expired in June. Has there been a resolve to this issue? If its programming would I really have to pay out of pocket for a fix?

I try to keep up with different threads on this issue, its hard now due to the list is so big. I have had this issue since 2020 when I got the truck and see its still going on with 2022 models. I'm getting the feeling that GM isn't looking into this. I would like to know why they are still selling the truck knowing its not working? The truck doesn't seem to have any other issues. My dealer just put in a new screen and then said just keep calling back to see if there is any updates. The GM person that reads these posts has been in touch with me but they aren't doing anything. They keep saying keep in touch with my dealer for updates. I would hope that someone would wake up and fix it. We keep having more people buying trucks with this issue, when are they going to take this serious.

When I do this, like today when I dropped my truck off for the belt squealing, they always tell me that the video is “nice” but it has to do it when it’s there for them to do anything at all…

Taking in my 2019 GMC Sierra Denali for the infotainment center going black.  It's been 2 1/2 weeks with nothing no radio, nav, phone or back up camera's on either the screen or the steering wheel.  Talked to service writers at 3 different dealerships to see if anyone knew about the black screen, nope never heard of it.  Called a fourth and bingo they have heard of it.  Per the service writer "just so you aware it will be over a $1,000 to fix it" doesn't know what the problem is but it will be over $1,000 to fix it.  Are you kidding me???? 

 

I read through the comments and tried the things that worked for others checked the fuses, held down the power for the radio and disconnected the battery which lead to other issues most resolved themselves but the lights on the radio controls stay on.  Came back outside and checked the lights stayed on 3 hours with the truck turned off so I pulled that fuse out.  Don't want have to buy another battery too.  

 

The software updates seem to be a common issue updating the HMI firmware or the V155 update for the 2021 models.  

 

Had my 2006 Chevy 2500hd Duramax for 16 years until it was stolen.  Didn't need the diesel anymore so I bought this truck seems to be a piece of crap having emission equipment issues and now the black screen.  Regrets.

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By SoCal Angler · Posted

      2023 GMC 3500 HD, SLE, 6.6L Gas, 4x4, 6 Spd Options:  SLE Convenience Package; Driver Alert Package 1; Spray on Bedliner; X31 Off Road Package; TRAILERING MIRRORS, HEATED POWER -ADJUSTABLE, AUTO DIMMING, WITH TURN INDICATORS WHEELHOUSE LINERS, REAR INC. REAR AXLE - 3.73 RATIO INC. GVWR, 11,350 LBS. (5148 KG) INC. FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST, INC. ULTRASONIC     I have been launching my new boat and noticed some things related to the parking brake.. I usually set the parking brake (habit) when on flat ground for typical driving.    When backed down on the launch ramp to launch the boat and I place gear selector into Park, the parking brake activates automatically. My second nature is to set parking brake manually and noticed I was turing the parking brake off.  The parking brake appears to be setting itself automatically.   I looked all over my owner's manual and only found references to being on an incline and manually setting parking brake, or at times parking brake will be auto engaged, but nothing specific to my situation.    When is the parking brake automatically engaged?  Under what specific circumstances?  Can the auto set parameters be changed?     I like the auto set feature.  It would be nice if always engaged when shifted into Park and released when shifted out of Park (like my wifes 2025 RAV4).   Thanks!
